  • the slurry viscosity is such that the slurry can be easily cast or extruded. If the pH of the tobacco extract is too acidic, the pH of the slurry may drop causing solvation of metal ions (such as calcium ions from chalk), which in turn cause excessive gelation.

  • a filler material is necessary to give the solid aerosol generating material a dry consistency which means that the material can be processed down-stream
  • the aerosol generating material is not processable; the material is typically tacky or sticky. Additionally, the inventors believe that the filler material, and in particular chalk, increases the strength of the aerosol generating material, prevents migration of the aerosol generating agent (i.e. ensures a uniform composition) and minimises unwanted water uptake (i.e. the material is then less hygroscopic).
  • the inventors have also established that, i the filler content is too high, the aerosol generating material is difficult to form.
  • the aerosol generating material is formed from a slurry (as discussed in detail herein) and, if the filler content is high, the slurry is difficult to process because the solid content is too high. A high filler content makes it difficult to cast the slurry (although extrusion may be possible). Additionally, if the filler content is too high it may insulate the volatilisable components of the aerosol generating material, thereby necessitating the use of more energy to form an aerosol and to consume all of the material. The inventors have established that the filler content defined herein provides a good balance of these properties.

In some embodiments, it may comprises less than about 10%, 9%, 8% or 7% by weight of binder. In some embodiments, the aerosol generating material comprises 6.2-6.8 wt% binder. In some embodiments, the aerosol generating material contains more tobacco extract (dry weight) than binder.
  • the binder increases the toughness or strength of the aerosol generating material. It also increases the viscosity of the slurry used to form the aerosol generating material, allowing it to be cast or extruded (for example) and to retain the desired shape. However, higher binder contents are undesirable because the slurries used to form the aerosol generating material may become too viscous to allow casting. Additionally, the cost of such aerosol generating materials increases with the binder content level.
  • the inventors have also found that the weight ratio of tobacco extract to binder (such as alginate) is important because ions present in the tobacco extract can cause the binder to gel excessively and cause syneresis; at the weight ratios claimed, excessive gelation and syneresis are minimised.
